It was a lovely old pub. Our room was on the third floor up six flights of steps with a heavy suitcase we are in our 60’s the staff didn’t offer to help. Food and beer was excellent

I had read the reviews before booking, so I was aware of what I might be in for. However, I found the check in quite helpful – there was an issue in the bathroom which staff apologised profusely for and as they were booked out he would have preferred to give me another room, but this understandably wasn’t possible. I arrived quite late, but this wasn’t an issue. It was conveniently located to my workshop and the room was lovely enough for the price. Unfortunately the shower was quite dirty but the room was nice and clean. The only other issue was a loud, drunk person outside in the hallway, but this wasn’t the hotels fault and thankfully it didn’t go on for too long. ☺️

There is no lift. We were in third floor, 4th including the pub below. We were climbing 67 steps twice a day. Not recommended if you have a big luggage. We stayed there for 3 nights. Noisy. Building was shaking when a bus passing by. Unhygienic to obtain a water from the toilet basin to make a hot drink. That’s what you get in the room. Mould on the bathroom and smell of urine, looks like it has not been cleaned and vacuumed for months. Nobody cleaned the room for first day. We spoke to the manager/ the staff who served us during check in and he said it will be only cleaned after the second night. Nobody came to clean at all. So we used the wet damp towel for 3 days. Broken light shade cover on the hallway exposing the light bulb. Small room, It’s a shame because the building looks nice outside.

It is a great concept Brewery, Restaurant and Hotel. It is centrally located and can walk to alot ie: Bay Harbor,Museums, Sky tower, food, and public transit options. They do not have a front desk. So don't get in earlier than said check in. The room I was is could use an upgrade. But it had what I needed a bed and shower. And when I asked for a hair dryer I forgot mine. They let me borrow one.
